Interesting that you should mention that, because that is exactly what I am
trying to do as well.  I have a small 2 wheeled robot (uses modified RC
servos for motors), and I am writing a LOGO interpreter on a 16C/F84 so my
son can learn a little bit about programming by sending LOGO commands to an
autonomous robot.  Initially the LOGO commands will be stored in the
internal EEPROM, but eventually I will include an IR receiver on the robot
that will receive the LOGO program from a PC equipped with an IR
transmitter and store the LOGO commands in an external (to the PIC) EEPROM.

I will post details when I get it working.

Exactly. That's how I tested my interpreter before I wrote the serial
loader code to put data into the eeprom.
